That's a great eBay listing and a nice car. Hope he gets a pretty penny for it.

I believe they are quoting horse power at the flywheel.

From what they listed, it is hard to believe that car pumps 430 fhp. It dynoed at like 329 rwhp...so that sould mean just under 400 fhp.

I don't know about you guys.. but the 470,000 pictures and magazine clips really turn me off from a vehicle like this.

Sounds like the **** saburo posts.

"I drive FD. I cant look to future when im older. I live for the now. When the driver has lost the will to fully possess such spirit of FD, that is when the driver will become unworthy of its legend."

"its is obvious you have lost the burning vigor that you may have once cherished so intensely. Search deep inside, and rekindle the flame of FD. Lets enjoy our hot rodding style together."

That is one CLEEEAAAAAN FD. Wow. Very pretty. Worth every penny IMO.

Anyone have the entire brochure the guy posted in the webpage saved by any chance? I was gonna save it myself, until I realized it's like 1000 pages long lol
